Accidents blamed on rain across Ward County
Four injured in two rollovers after rain swept Ward County last Thursday. Victor Urias 29 and James Cruz 19 of Odessa were hurt when their truck tractor flipped on TX 80 near TX 115 as Urias slowed for a stop sign. Urias treated for a fractured left arm and Cruz for back and side abrasions. Kevork Tackmakjian 71 and Ephronia 75 of Whittier California suffered fractured skulls when their car overturned west of Pyote after a passing vehicle forced them to pull inside lane. They were transported to Odessa Medical Center Hospital. A third accident near Sandhills State Park caused no injuries. Adolfo Chavez 400 South Erie was eastbound on 120 when his pickup skidded and rolled onto its side.
